Overview

• Jets cornerback Sauce Gardner is dealing with a hamstring injury sustained in Week 13, and his status for Sunday's game against the Dolphins remains uncertain.
• Interim head coach Jeff Ulbrich stated that Gardner's condition is still being evaluated but emphasized that playing cornerback against Miami's speedy receivers requires full health.
• Miami Dolphins wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, known for their speed, present a significant challenge for the Jets' defense, especially without Gardner.
• The Jets' secondary depth includes Qwan’tez Stiggers and Brandin Echols, with Echols being the more experienced option but lacking Gardner's elite coverage ability.
• The Dolphins have dominated their recent matchups with the Jets, winning 13 of the last 16 games, and are currently six-point favorites for Sunday's contest.
